A sales representative who accepts a kickback from a purchaser of his or her employer's products is not guilty of a crime based on the good faith exception.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

accepting kickbacks is illegal and a violation of the representative's duty to act in the best interest of their employer. The good faith exception applies to situations where a person unwittingly violates a law due to a reasonable belief that their actions were legal. Accepting kickbacks is not a reasonable belief and therefore, the representative would not be protected by the good faith exception.
